How do we import items from an existing inventory (Excel) file?
You can keep your inventory in a spreadsheet which can be uploaded to TrueGether.
Follow the guidelines below to create and upload an inventory file successfully.
- The file must be either in .xls or .xlsx format.
- You must use the format specified in sample.xls (Do not change the first two header rows). You can download the sample.xls from this page.
- You must include all the fields specified as "required" from the below table.
- You must specify a UNIQUEID for each product. UNIQUEID is used to identify individual products. In the future, you can update the product information by specifying the same UNIQUEID for the same product and uploading the file again.
- We only import the first workbook of your spreadsheet. Make sure you have listings in the first workbook.
